Kane County has been named to National Geographic's list of BEST SPRINGTRIPS 2014!


I need to preface this by saying to all of our friends and families that I assume you know you are always welcome to visit us and explore southern Utah!!  We have plenty of room.  In fact we are so used to small areas that we only use one floor leaving the other floor open for guests.  We love guests. Please visit.  We would love to show you around and if we aren't up for it we would love to give you a map and send you on your way:).  Just off of the top of my head I am thinking the Lockes, the Wheelers, the Saffels, Uncle Bill & Jean, Uncle Tom & Dolly and the cousins, Uncle Jim & Tammy and Jude and his family and Tammy's kids and Aunt Margaret and Jonathan and Laura and Kristyn & her family and the list goes on people!  I know the Grand Canyon isn't going anywhere and Zion will be here for a long time but you never know when the government will shut down :) 



Not that I am surprised but I am excited! They also mention our friends motel Quail Park! Whoo Hoo!

Kane County sits in the middle of southwestern Utah’s staggering geological smorgasbord: narrow slot canyons, polychrome cliffs, wavelike buttes, and world-class paleontological sites. From Kanab, the county seat, it’s 90 minutes or less to three national parks (Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, and Zion), Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, and the rugged and remote 1.9-million-acre Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, the last area in the continental United States to be mapped. “What strikes people when they visit is the intensity of the outdoor experience available here,” says Kanab custom furniture maker Rich Csenge. “[There's] staggering natural beauty, trailheads everywhere, and the sense of eternity expressed in geology and topography that seems to change color and shape with every hour of the day.”
